EVERYTHING BUT ENGLISH LESSONS
Congratulations on discovering the most effective way to promote your child's English language acquisition.
No textbooks!
No syllabus!
No worksheets!
No drilling!
No pointless repetition!
In fact, no lessons!
Children already spend too much time in school (and at home) subjected to these arcane, ineffective teaching methods.
We offer an approach where our first priority is to engage the child, for us it is imperative that the child is excited and enthusiastic about our time together. We achieve this by invoking the most efficient child development technique at our disposal - PLAY!
Our first step is to establish a relationship based on trust and friendship, by asking the child to show us their favourite toys and games, then we progress to creative activities based on their individual interests. Eventually we progress to child lead projects involving research and skill development. We have an arsenal of equipment and resources at our disposal, so the possibilities are endless!
Some examples of past projects;
- Learning to play the ukulele.
- Producing a short film (utilising digital cameras, AV editing and stop/motion software).
- Germinating seeds and growing plants.
- Writing and recording a song (utilising sound recording, and digital music production software).
- Making historically accurate replicas of ancient weapons.
...the list goes on and on!
We do not believe in separating subjects, instead we advocate 'project-based' learning, so the educational and developmental benefits amount to so much more than simply learning English.
Our role is to guide, support and encourage the child throughout their endeavours, drawing on our collective skills and experience.
And of course, all the while communicating in English.
Your child will be exposed to the language in the most effective way possible - naturally and organically, within the context of an engaging, fun-filled environment!
